Everything between the drip edge and the ground

Installation & replacement

Seamless gutter installation — new runs and full replacements, hung to the right pitch so water actually moves. The ideal time is during a roof project — flashing and drip edge integrate as one system — but standalone installs are welcome too.

Gutter cleaning

Cottonwood fluff, leaves, and shingle grit fill Valley gutters faster than most homeowners expect. We clear the runs and downspouts, flush the system, and flag anything — sagging hangers, failed seams — worth fixing while we're up there.

Full replacement, not patching

When runs are sagging, seams are leaking, or gutters are pulling off the fascia, we replace the run rather than patch it. A patched gutter fails again at the next seam; a new seamless run doesn't. We don't take standalone gutter repairs, and we'll say so up front.

Downspouts & drainage

Downspouts placed and extended so meltwater lands away from the foundation instead of against it — the detail that separates a gutter system from gutter-shaped decoration.

Drip edge & fascia

The hand-off from roof to gutter is where water sneaks behind the system. We make sure drip edge laps into the gutter — not behind it — and catch fascia rot early, while it's a board and not a beam.

Seasonal check-ups

A cleaning after the cottonwoods let go and another before the freeze — timed to the Valley's calendar, with eyes on hangers, seams, and pitch at every visit so small problems stay small.

Gutter work pairs naturally with a roof replacement — one crew, one schedule, one cleanup. A gutter cleaning also rides along with the Premium level of APX Roof Renew.

Seamless, explained

What "seamless" actually buys you

Seamless gutters are run as one continuous piece for each stretch of eave, so the only joints in the whole system sit at corners and downspout outlets. That matters because every seam is a future leak: sun bakes the sealant, freeze-thaw pries it apart, and a drip line starts right over your flower bed. Fewer seams, fewer chances.

  • Continuous runs — joints only at corners and outlets
  • 5-inch K-style suits most Grand Valley homes; large, steep, or metal roofs often earn 6-inch
  • Hangers spaced for real snow load, not the minimum
  • Pitched enough to move water, level enough to look right
  • Color-matched stock, so the runs disappear into the trim
The Valley calendar

A gutter's year in the Grand Valley

Gutter cleaning here isn't a generic twice-a-year chore — it follows a local schedule the trees and the weather set for us.

Early summer

Cottonwood season

The Valley's cottonwoods let go right as irrigation and the first storms arrive, and the fluff mats over downspout outlets like felt. A June clearing keeps the system open for the storm season that follows.

Late summer

Monsoon bursts

A monsoon cloudburst moves more water in an hour than a week of drizzle — it's when clogged or under-pitched gutters overflow, and when hail rides along. A storm inspection and a gutter check belong in the same visit.

Fall & winter

Leaf-drop, then ice

Leaves are down by November, and a clogged gutter holds the water that freezes into ice dams at the eave — backing snowmelt up under the first course of shingles. Clean before the freeze and the spring melt passes straight through.

Why it matters here

Failed gutters wreck more than gutters

When gutters clog or pull loose, water goes behind the fascia, under the first course of shingles, and down against the foundation. On the Western Slope the damage compounds fast: freeze-thaw turns a wet fascia board into a rotten one, ice dams back meltwater up under the first course of shingles, and spring runoff finds every gap winter opened up.

The fix is unglamorous and cheap by comparison: gutters hung right, cleaned before winter and after the cottonwoods let go, and downspouts that put water where it belongs. We check all of it as part of every free roof inspection.

Questions

Gutter FAQ

How often should gutters be cleaned here?

Twice a year is the honest answer for most Grand Valley homes — once after the cottonwoods and fall leaves come down, and once before monsoon season. Homes under mature trees may need more; a newer subdivision roof may get away with less. Gutter guards can stretch that interval, though cottonwood fluff tests even good ones — ask at your inspection and we'll give you a straight read.

Can you add gutters during a roof job?

Yes, and that's the ideal time — flashing, drip edge, and gutter integrate as one system instead of being retrofitted later, and you get one schedule and one cleanup instead of two.

Do I have to be a roofing customer?

No. Standalone gutter installs, full replacements, and cleanings are all welcome. It's simply cheapest when it rides along with a roof project, because the crew and equipment are already there.

My gutters overflow in storms — do I need bigger ones?

Sometimes — but overflow is more often a clog, a bad pitch, or too few downspouts than an undersized gutter. We'll diagnose which one yours is before recommending anything. If the run itself has failed, the fix is a new seamless run, not a patch.

When is the best time to replace gutters?

Alongside a roof project, if one's on the horizon — flashing, drip edge, and gutters integrate as one system. Standalone, the shoulder seasons are ideal: after spring runoff or before the fall leaves and winter snowmelt put the system back to work.

Do gutters come in colors that match my house?

Yes — modern gutter stock comes in a wide range of colors, so runs can match or deliberately contrast your trim and fascia. We'll bring samples and give you an honest read on what disappears and what stands out.

What does "seamless" actually mean?

Each straight stretch of gutter is run as one continuous piece, so the only joints in the system are at corners and downspout outlets. Since seams are where gutters leak first — sealant dries out, freeze-thaw works it loose — fewer joints means a longer watertight life.

Can my gutters be repaired, or do they need replacing?

We replace rather than repair. A sagging run resecured or a seam resealed tends to fail again at the next joint, so we don't take standalone gutter repair work. If a run is failing, we replace it with new seamless gutter hung to the right pitch, and if it isn't failing, we'll tell you to leave it alone.
